My gf she overstay her visa, however her driver license still valid till april of 2010. if she got pull over by a CHP or Police will she faces deportation since she overstays her visa. or will CHP know that she is overstay her visa by any chance. Or she just gets a citation and pay the fine? anybody have any expirence in this matter?
 
The police officer will assume that she is legally in the country as DMV isn't supposed to issue a DL with an expiration date past the visa date. In California DMV is required to check the legal status when they issue a DL.

Obviously that didn't happen - or the law changed and no one told me.

I remember that when I was on H1B, my license was only valid for the duration of my visa and I was not able to renew via the web. Funny thing is (come to think about it) I never had to show my GC after the second renewal. But I also don't have as much as a parking violation on my record.
 
Not even a parking ticket? Obviously the hounds of San Francisco's DPT have never been lurking in the background...
